Well yes.

It's like going over to some huge dude, and whacking them in the mouth out of nowhere, getting the first shot in, sure, at that point you're winning, but that becomes irrelevant when they knock seven shades of shite out of you moments later.

Khan won the first 2 but Canelo was coming on after.

It doesn't matter.. Kahn got KTFO and there won't be a rematch. Amir is finished on the world scene.

Agreed it doesn't matter and no rematch, no way he's done at the world level. This didn't hurt him at all. He'll be in several more top fights. I'd love for Spence to get his scalp after errol beats Brook.

Ditto.

Tritto.

I just want to see any of the Top Welterweights actually start fighting each other. The division is pretty loaded, but several of them are unbeaten because they won't damn fight each other.

Thurman
Brook
Garcia
Porter
Spence
Khan
Bradley

You can match those guys up any way you want, I'm down and I'd like to see it.

I had Canelo 5-0. I mean, all Khan was doing, has been running.

Brook will dodge boxing's up-and-coming superstar. Even protected by the security of fighting across the pond, Brook would be dismantled by Spence.

Brook will gladly allow himself to be stripped of his worthless IBF title to avoid Spence.

Even without a belt, there's probably more money (and a greater chance of winning) for him in a British showdown with Khan then a championship whupping against Spence.

Yeah...except for those times when he threw combinations and hit Canelo. Moving and punching isn't running.

Canelo was doing very little in the first 5 rounds.

I was kidding, Khan did pretty good, without actually scoring the rounds, (late in Europe, been tired), it felt like he won atleast 3.

Anyway, it doesn't really matter, its a 12 round fight, not 6 rounds.
